  • House Passes Landfill Bill Allowing Alternative Materials As Temporary Cover
    House passes landfill bill allowing alternative materials as temporary cover alreporter.com/2020/02/21/house-passes-landfill-bill-allowing-alternative-materials-as-temporary-cover-at- landfills/ Brandon Moseley, Brandon Moseley, Brandon Moseley, Brandon Moseley, Jessa Reid Bolling, Jessa Reid Bolling February 21, 2020 The Alabama House of Representatives passed a bill Thursday to change the statutory definition so that temporary “cover” in landfills can be a material other than “earth.” House Bill 140 is sponsored by State Rep. Alan Baker, R-Brewton. The bill allows landfills to use alternative daily covers in place of earth to cover landfills until the next business day. “The EPA has allowed this since 1979,” Baker said. It would save landfills the cost of using earth for daily cover. “This does not change anything in the operating rules for landfills,” Baker said. A number of members from both parties expressed concerns about this bill on Tuesday, so the bill was carried over until Thursday. Speaker of the House Mac McCutcheon told reporters, “Sometimes in a debate you can see that the debate is not a filibuster or anti-debate; but rather is an honest effort by members 1/8 to understand a bill.” “There was a lot of misinformation out there,” McCutcheon said. The Environmental Services Agency and ADEM were brought in to explain the members and address their concerns. McCutcheon said that human biosolids is a separate issue and that Rep. Tommy Hanes has introduced legislation dealing with that issue. Advertisement Alternative daily cover is often described as cover material other than earthen material placed on the surface of the active face of a municipal solid waste landfill at the end of each operating day.

    Edited by Ryan Godfrey February 2020 Get involved. SPECIAL ISSUE 2019 was a banner year for alabama libraries. let’s make it even greater in 2020! In 2019, our state lawmakers chose to fund library State Aid at more than $1.00 per capita for the first time since 2009 because they understand how imperative quality public library services are to the health of Alabama’s communities large and small. Additionally, Alabama legislators thoughtfully chose to expand the Alabama Supercomputer Authority’s (ASA) role in providing blazing fast internet throughout the state to allow 116 public libraries to also tap into this broadband network. Take the opportunity this 2020 legislative session to inform your legislators how much their support means to the vitality of your library. Last year was a banner year, but the new year brings us a host of topics to discuss, including the census, suporting workforce development, and continued funding for the ASA broadband initiative. Alabama’s libraries impact communities, and 94 percent of people agree that a library improves the quality of life of the community they serve. Alabama public libraries APLS Director Nancy C. Pack presents the Bicentennial children’s book, Alabama: My Home Sweet Home! by Charles Ghigna, as a gift to provide access to fast broadband internet, prepare students Governor Ivey after she signs a proclamation supporting libraries for today’s competitive job market, offer STEM-learning activities, assist citizens in applying for government services, and enhance small business development.
